still trying to figure out how a horse like Punta Arenas got in the race?
was it because of the trainers connection to Phumelela?

I must be stupid but why attact wagner?

The condition of the race states that the winner of the sc qualifies
Joey has had zero pressure therefore in preperation for this race
He as managed to get its mr lower and form appear off getting him a weight of 53
He has had 5/6 grass gallops and is therefore race fit
I have no doubt he is racing fit as well ( diff to race fit)
This is training at its best, getting a horse into a target race in the best possible condition and advantages
He is putting the gin on for the July .....amazing
He might not be the best horse in the race but that is often the case, you might not like Wagner but if he carried 58kgs you could certainly disregard him, with 53 he is a runner.

From what i've seen people are saying Rock cocktail and Tellina were unlucky not to get in while Gothic, Wild one and Love Struck were fortunate to get in.

Tellina should not have gotten into the July over Love Struck, Gothic or Wild one, horses which could be argued were borderline entries into the july. This is in black and white in the form book.

Plus from what i've seen (correct me if im wrong) Tellina struggles to jump on terms and usually has to try run on from right at the back. That might work in Turffontein but with Greyville's much shorter run in, i personally didn't give Tellina much of a chance in the july, especially when you look at it's poor run in the daily news, even if their may be excuses.

You would have to look at other horses for Tellina to get in over, Rock cocktail however does have a fair case to make.

go onto formgrids and have a look at punta arenas 2 runs behind hill 54 and now look at the weight pull he has with hill54 in the july...hill 54 almost won a race called the met where he beat a horse called pomodoro who is fav for the july...punta has his 3rd run here and has been very well placed by mr elley and his run to a certain horse called variety club at greyville off level weights was eyecatching......he fully deserves his chance in the july...

So they mostly went with their 'log' (apart from Run For It) - which most agree was a poor starting point - garbage in, garbage out ::o

So u saying its better to be quiet like a little lamb than voice your opinion when you clearly been wronged?

In my book letting someone know they have wronged you is never a futile exercise.

Flash I don't know you but I would have a nice wager that if you owned RC or T you would be shouting it from the rooftops what a bunch of malaka's the panel are!

I don't believe Phumulela had any influence over the field, looking at who owns RC...

Frodo I assume you said this tongue in cheek. Correct?

saksy i would be screaming blue murder as you say but the fact remains frodo is right these malakas can do what they like. is why de kock say they do it year after year. i remember not so long ago there was a legal challenge maybe it was goodman i cant remember, the judge say how can he rule against GC when the conditions are clear. being clear does not meen it is fair!
